Planetarium’s 200-Player Space Game, Whoosh, Bang, Wow
What is Space Cruiser? It’s an interactive, 360-degree installation that turns the American Museum of Natural History’s planetarium dome into “a giant virtual spacecraft” that you get to navigate through asteroid belts and wormholes with your “crew.”
Separate “crew” members are responsible for the ship’s thrusts, right-left turning, maneuvering, “repairs” and etc. Part arty wow, part social experiment, “flying” this thing involves a lot of on-the-spot group collaboration, or as WNYC’s Carolina Miranda recalls, “heated shouting.” Sounds fun. When the ship crashes, everything spins, disorienting and spectacular… sounds very fun.
Created by indie game developers Babycastles and open-source software developer Ivan Safrin, Space Cruisers will be on view and playable at the Rose Center for Earth and Space for the American Museum of Natural History’s after-hours party Cosmic Cocktails and Space Arcade tonight, 6:30pm to 8:30pm and costs $75 to attend. Way cheaper than going to space, right?
Editor-in-Chief:
I have been browsing online more than 3 hours as of late, yet I by no means discovered any attention-grabbing article like yours. It is pretty price sufficient for me. In my view, if all webmasters and bloggers made just right content material as you probably did, the internet shall be much more useful than ever before.
Thank you, I have recently been looking for information approximately this topic for ages and yours is the best I’ve discovered till now. However, what in regards to the bottom line? Are you sure in regards to the supply?|What i do not realize is in reality how you are not really a lot more neatly-appreciated than you might be now. You are so intelligent.
